A couple Odd things about my Clutch

Chuck33079

Notice how the clutch fluid looks darker than the brake fluid? That means the internals of the OEM CSC are starting to come apart. Right now you've got two options. One is to continue driving it until it fails, and then pray the dealer takes care of you on the warranty. The other is to buy the HD CSC now and put it on a shelf, so when it fails you can sweet talk the dealer into installing it instead of the OEM piece when the car shows up there on a flatbed.

Someone soon will chime in about the magical "GTR Fluid" that will cure all your woes. It's a band-aid. The problem is a failing part, and fluid will not save it. It will only prolong the time until the bearing fails.

I disagree. The clutch fluid needs to be changed. It is not real bad, but needs to be changed. It is normal for the clutch fluid to look crappier than the brake fluid. It needs changing more often. Been that way on every Z I have ever owned.

Show me one person who had a CSC problem solved by fluid. Solved, not put off a few thousand miles. I'll wait.

He doesn't have a problem yet, but he will if he doesn't change the fluid. All CSC will fail eventually. Even on the older Z's that were on the outside of the bellhousing, They failed too. Pisses me off because they have always had issue no matter what the brand. What did Nissan do? Go and stick the dam thing inside the bellhousing. Now they are making it a pain in the butt to change. It used to only take 10mins to change one.
